Dave Alvin - (I Won't Be) Leaving lyrics

It's cold and you're leaving Midnight cars roll down the street The streetlight shines in the gutter And you going off to sleep But baby I sit up smoking Wipe the ashes off the bed Think of what you told me And the words I never said I won't be leaving I won't be leaving anymore Now a police helicopter fly circles in the sky When I ask myself baby Could you believe just one more lie And I sit up smoking Wipe the ashes off the bed Think of what you told me And the words I never said I won't be leaving I won't be leaving anymore And I see you sleeping our shoes on the floor It would be so easy baby to slip out the door But if you are awake girl I swear I would tell you That I won't be leaving anymore I hear sirens in the darkness Tell sad stories in the night Coulda been me caught red-handed Coulda been me that lost the fight But baby I sit up smoking Wipe the ashes off the bed Think of what you told me And the words I never said I won't be leaving I won't be leaving anymore I won't be leaving I won't be leaving anymore I won't be leaving I won't be leaving
